Answer 1

No, but they might refer them to mohels to circumcise them.

Answer 2

Hatred is probably the wrong word. Disappointment and pity would probably be more accurate to describe the feeling that most of the Orthodox Jewish community has towards those Jewish men who are uncircumcised. (Female circumcision has no place in Judaism.) To Orthodox Judaism, the circumcision is the physical mark of the Divine Covenant which Jews have with God (Genesis ch.17) and represents one of the connections a Jew has to his tradition and history. Therefore, an uncircumcised Jew cannot demonstrate the tradition and connection in the same way that a circumcised Jew can. See the discussion section for a similar example.

Can south African modern orthodox Jews appear to live the same as reformed Jews in the states?

In South Africa, like most countries aside from the USA and the UK, the Jewish communities are overwhelmingly Orthodox. Whether or not a person who attends an Orthodox Synagogue is Orthodox in his "non-synagogue activities" is purely up to the believer. So, some members of the Orthodox community may not actually be observant Jews and would appear like Reform Jews in the USA. However, they would not call themselves Orthodox, but Jews who happen to belong to an Orthodox synagogue. Actual Orthodox Jews in South Africa would be indistinguishable from Orthodox Jews in the USA.
